Always, Jarhead
And good to know, Zsuzsu. I had the same thought about the increased chance of contams. 4 exposures per qt instead of 1. I'm gonna run into the same issue with the lids having 4 holes but I should have enough SFD lids and/SFDs laying around to make them work.
I've seen a lot of people talking about the stick-on filters, Doc. Have you used them yet? Thoughts on them?

So a like a month ago I got a hold of a few cases of jars. Not sure what brand but anyway I just used them all for the first time and one was so deformed near the top where the glass tapers it had a ridge so big the cap wouldnβt fit on tight.
Then last night I ran a batch in the pc and shut it off. This afternoon I went to pull them out and shake them up. I shook seven jars and the bottoms blew out of two of them.
Idk if itβs some off brand or if the jar places are lax on quality right now cuz everybodyβs sold out.

I have not. I was concerned that the adhesive won't hold together too well in the PC and was going to put some RTV on em but another member said they've been using them without RTV with no issues.

I personally used RTV on them just incase. Would suck if they came off due to the adhesive failing. Let me know how it works for you! Would be much easier if I didn't have to RTV it. I need to make about 20-30 more lids here soon.

I get the small tubes from amazon with the attachable little tip, works well and isn't to hard at all just gets annoying after awhile haha and sometimes I accidently don't press exactly in the middle and the RTV gets on my SFD hole and I gotta use another one. Does give peace of mind.

 Harvest now? All? Just the guys with opened caps? Giving them a bit more time?

You could harvest the one's with open caps but it's up to you. I personally would wait just a wee bit longer maybe like 4-6 more hours. But if they all are looking like the veils are coming off then you can go ahead.
Some people love the harvest like that because no risk of spore drops.
I enjoy having all the caps open.

If anyone has 2 mins can you check the progress of my first grow, just the last post. Where I have 2 fruits that are way fatter and bigger than the others do these look ok or should I remove? They are growing right at the base of the cakes and I'm guessing had started pinning before the dunk hence they are so advanced compared to the others. They look like they are barely hanging on to the cake at the base.
https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/27163002/vc/1#27163002
Any tips or advice on what you see is appreciated as always. Especially the verm on top thing I went for to try and meet some moisture at the top of the cakes. Thanks guys

First ever yes but that's after reading an absurd amount and asking an absurd amount of questions (which I'm still doing). I'm good at overthinking.
I have grains colonising now for a mono too which I think I'm more comfortable with.
I saw my first post on here the other day which was basically asking if I could put a tub in an outside garage during the UK winter inside an old wardrobe with an oil heater in the wardrobe too lol. Due to lockdown and living conditions I've had to wait the best part of a year to start, I almost had too much time to plan.

I've been doing it off and on for years. The past couple got really serious about the hobby. Never posted in here but utilized the forum daily for research. But this is far less toxic than social media mushroom cultivation groups. I was asked this past week to be a guest on a podcast discussing misogyny and toxicity in the mushroom subculture. Unfortunately I do fine typing but freeze on camera or interviews. I have only done one on TV. It was for the American Indian Movement and it caused insane anxiety.

wow! I've only really experienced the culture on here and it's all positive. Where I live I know a couple of people that trip occasionally, no one at all that grows and I don't think there is a culture. there definitely is for many other substances but not psychedelics. that's cool that you were offered though, I'm not great with speaking to an audience either.
I saw your comment about Raekwon's lambrusco btw, that is so fucking cool, I've loved Wu for 20+ years, he's a hero. I didn't add to that coversation as I don't do cult enough to have a go to soundtrack yet but I think OB4CL would work or DOOM RIP.

It's social media honestly. This is a very kind and helpful community. Many of the groups on social media hate shroomery except a few that I have seen. But social media is a toxic wasteland of people who have whisky balls behind a keyboard.
I love raekwon. But I tend to gravitate to the hip hop artists not posting who to vote for and instead tell a story of their experience.

The cultivators that hate the shroomery are the same people that say the smaller mushrooms are the most potent but only when grown in complete darkness and promote Uncle Ben's as the greatest tek of all time. They come here and argue their beliefs, catch a bad rating and go back to reddit or FB where nobody else knows any better.

Ffs people still do uncle Ben's? I read it once and was like that's some ghetto shit you use to grow trich. And you hit quite a few. I was basically called stupid for extreme care on sterile technique in one group. My philosophy is if I wouldn't do it in the OR I won't do it in my mushroom lab.

I 100% agree with both of your assessments of social media cult groups. I found shroomery LOOOOONG before I found those groups and was blown away by A) the amount of hate for such an awesome community and B) some of the info and discussion happening in them. My experience here, even with the few assholes that frequent us (I love you anyway, assholes ), have been largely nothing but positive. So many helpful and knowledgeable and caring people just willing to help others learn. It phenomenal. I love this community so much that to see people so dismissive of it and defensive of their opinion of it leads me to believe many of those opinions come from people who don't like or know how to take advice. truly not trying to generalize people by saying this but I feel like this community does a pretty good job of weeding out and/or encouraging certain mind sets and types of people. A large portion of those in the SM groups are the one that were weeded out and can't swallow their pride enough to rejoin or try again. Some of them are for sure the next generation of cultivator and may not have discovered just how great this place yet so I try to be understanding but I long ago decided those groups were of no good use to me. Only a few times of trying to explain to someone why taping the bottom of your tub would not prevent side pins while being cussed out by multiple members was enough.
